In the Post - eCommerce - Parcel division, we hired new employees mainly to accommo-
date the sustained growth in the parcel business in Germany. e number of employees
in the Express division increased compared with the previous year. is was necessary
primarily in operations due to increased shipment volumes. In the Global Forwarding,
Freight division, our workforce grew, due primarily to the new customers we won in
Asia. In the Supply Chain division, growth in new and existing business led to a .
increase in the workforce, which was tempered by the loss of a contract in the Retail
sector in Canada. Excluding this eect, employment rose by . .
From a geographic perspective, the loss of the contract in Supply Chain more than
compensated for the increase in our workforce in the Americas. Our sta levels were
up in all other regions. We continue to employ the highest number of our personnel
in Germany.
Our current planning foresees further slight growth in the number of employees
in nancial year .
